Another solution, of course, is to learn to do basic bicycle main- tenance yourself. With a spare tube, tire levers and a good pump, anyone can fix a flat tire. Ask your bicycle shop staff (soon, before the rush!) how to center and adjust the brakes and properly infiate the tires. If you're really keen they can recomn- mend a good repair manual and select some basic tools to get you started. For.the tool-shy non technician, nothing substitutes for classroom instruction. Community colleges such as George Brown and Humber, as well as several boards of education, offer hands-on workshops. Wiilowridge is a non- profit job retraining center which offers classes on all aspects of bicycle know-how, including main- tenance. Women, especially, may find working on her bicycle an in- timidating prospect. The knowledge and confidence to "do it yourself" ailows a more complete enjoyment of cyclinig; for the woman who bicycle tune-up. depends on her bicycle for transpor- tation or long-distance touring, these skills are essential. Women can learn how to get more out of cycling, whether for casual touring, fitness riding or com- muting at the Cycling Women Coni- ference '88, presented by the On- tario Cycling Association's Womens Committee. The weekend event will be held on March 26 and 27 at Monarch Park Collegiate,- near Danforth and Coxwell, Toronto. While the focus is on the needs and interests of women (who comprise the majority of newcomers to the sport), ail bicycle riders are invited to attend. *A total of 32 workshops are plan- ned, including equipment and bicycle buying, tour organizing, commuting, traffic riding skills, travelogue slide shows, training and competition, cycling injuries, and two very popular sessions on bicycle maintenance. The cost for both days is only $35, with discounts for early registration. Phone the Ontario Cycling Association at 416-495-4141 for more information, or pick up a registration brochure at your local bicycle shop.
